Recommended uses
- Creams and mousses with a smooth, set texture
- Set bavarois and custards
- Fruit jams with enhanced firmness
- Inserts and entremets requiring a firm set when chilled
Dosage and preparation: use 20 g of gelatin per liter of preparation for a soft thickening, up to 40 g for a firmer mixture. Dissolve the powder in the liquid, heat to 40 °C while stirring without boiling, then let it cool and set in the refrigerator. Gelatin does not set with pineapple, kiwi, papaya, mango or fresh ginger: these fruits contain an enzyme that destroys its gelling strength. Use them cooked or canned if the recipe calls for them.

Frequently asked questions
Why isn't my gelatin preparation setting?
Check whether your recipe contains pineapple, kiwi, papaya, mango or fresh ginger: these fruits contain an enzyme that destroys gelatin's gelling strength. Use them cooked or canned to avoid the problem.
Does gelatin need to be boiled?
No, never exceed 40 °C when dissolving it: excessive heat reduces gelatin's gelling strength and weakens the final set.
What is the difference between Bloom 150 gelatin and standard gelatin?
The Bloom index measures gelling strength: the higher it is, the firmer the gelatin sets at the same dosage. Bloom 150 is considered high and is suitable for preparations requiring good stability with a moderate amount of powder.
